Work has begun on a key project to improve connectivity between Dehradun, the capital of Uttarakhand, and the national capital, Delhi. According to sources, a four-lane bypass will be constructed along the Delhi-Dehradun corridor, with the target of completing it by 2027. The project is expected to be a significant step in regional development.

This will not only reduce travel time but also improve the movement of goods and passengers. Experts believe this will also boost the regional economy.
